And turns out… he can get away with everything.

I mean… yeah, probably.

Well, Senators Manchin and Sinema made sure nothing got done through then… which, when you realize Biden was in charge of the DNC during his administration… it’s a whole “they didn’t whip their legislators well enough” situation. Democrats are nearly world renowned for failing at that.

Filibuster only works against certain legislative pushes… usually only stuff that needs 60 votes (instead of a simple majority) in the Senate.

Louisianan here… I’m working on my French language skills… if y’all want to invade and take it back, not gonna lie we’ve got some problems (red state).

Right, the best time was yesterday. Today is the second best time but it’s better than nothing.

Effing preach!!!

Yep. It’s been a whole thing on the YouTube political drama channels and in like Dem Leaning progressive spaces.

I wish I was kidding… here’s Cenk being given a (mostly) kid gloves “debate” with Francesca. She’s since left TYT over Cenk’s embrace of MAGA and Anna’s embrace of TERF talking points.

Sad to say, but it’s likely some of this bump they’re getting is TYT listeners/viewers leaving after Cenk and Anna’s latest spar with literally everyone near their orbit (and even losing some contributors). Many -oh so many- disaffected MSNBC viewers turned to non-traditional media after 2016, I cannot imagine how many might be leaving for more actually progressive sources after the recent election… but TYT has fumbled the bag here by both attacking other progressives AND doing shit like Charlie Kirk “debates” and interviews with Tucker Carlson.

I really hope they turn the ship around, because going after MAGA die hards isn’t the answer. At any rate, Majority Report seems to be doing just fine so there’s that.

It’s because of their ideology. To Hitler’s government, the extermination of the Jews as well as the mentally/physically challenged, the Roma, and all kinds of LGBTQ was seen as being as important as knocking France out of commission, bombing Britain to capitulation, or destroying the Soviet Union. The Holocaust wasn’t seen as some side project, it was an actual war goal and taken as seriously as anything else in the war.

Don’t look for it to make sense, little of Nazi ideology makes sense.

Is he trying to run afoul of the zink lobby? Those folks go hard.

We don’t really have evidence of Jesus’ historicity. I mean absence of evidence isn’t evidence of absence but, all in all, there’s pretty much zero direct evidence of his existence. Almost nothing that would point to historicity in the gospels is corroborated by archeology… like was Pilot a person who existed? Yes, very likely he was. Is there biographies of him? Yes, there are contemporaneous sources showing him to be real. Is there anything, outside of the gospels, recount him meeting Jesus in any capacity let alone a whole trial and execution? No, there’s nothing like that. The whole scenario of Jesus’ life as chronicled by the gospels doesn’t hold up to scrutiny… sure, some of the people and many of the places do exist, but just because New York exists it doesn’t mean Spiderman is real.

As for the early church, even Paul doesn’t claim to have known a historic Jesus but rather only recounts experiences of visions of Jesus and angels.

Thank you!

VOTE BLUE NO MATTER WHO, because they’re all hilarious, woahfully ineffective at combatting conservatives and the far right, but hilarious.

If it’s retroactive, then we haven’t had a single male president.

Bird flu really feels like a thing we all need to be watching right now… just saying.

The only recorded instance of which I can think of someone who was even slightly pro-fascism taking out a fascist is literally Hitler… he killed himself, but only because the Red Army was already inside Berlin and looking for him.

This is Lemmy… that’s not at all difficult. This platform is mostly furries, communists, and Linux users… as well as the mythical furry communist Linux user.
